      Played around with it for quite some time now and still I am amazed about what this plugin can do.

      If I may ask, would it be possible to add an option that allows to chose the scale of the texture before applying it and then keep that value until it is changed? That would save a lot of time in comparison to changing the scale of each texture manually after it was applied.

        That's a good idea, but I would put it as an option.
        Note you can also change the material definition (i.e. the dimensions).

          Of course you can but often enough I have a model where I wish to use the same material in different scales and having an option to choose a different scale before applying a material would be great!

                fredo, thank you very much for this new update.

                A query. Is possible to copy the material properties (rotation, scale, etc ...) and paste those properties to other faces?

                  Great update Fredo! This was my only issue with the tool. Now it is perfection!

                    You have the transfer UV mode, which allows to substitute a texture by another without changing the UVs.

                    Otherwise, if the faces are adjacent to the painted faces, just click and drag to extend the painting.

                    Fredo

                      If the mesh is made out of Quads you can use QuadFace Tools to copy and paste UV mapping.

                          can be applied a methodology similar to native sketchup materials, using the "Alt" to copy the properties of a material?

                            We cannot use ALT in scripts because when the key is UP it gives focus to the main Sketchup menu.
                            But I can do it on Shift

                            Note that you can also press the Enter key to sample the material under the mouse

                              I have updated as required Fredo Tools to 1.1n and Thru:Paint to 1.0n, however the Check Plugin for Updates still list the two programs as Fredo Tools as 1.1m and Thru:Paint as 1.0m.

                              Am I making a mistake, or is the new programs not registering correctly?

                              Thanks

                                Hi Fredo, i'm testing the last revision of ThruPaint 1.0n on Mac (OSX 10.6.8 & SU8) all works fine except that you say in the main post about Material Selector but i have found other problem the arrows don't work on Mac, it is not a big problem because i can introduce the values through the Measures or Visual Edition Mode.
                                Thanks for this great plugin!! πŸ‘

                                  Did it work in previous versions?
                                  Or other Mac OS versions?

                                  Thanks

                                    I haven't probed other Mac OS versions.

                                      This is really great, thank you for fulfilling my request!

                                      It works great, just how I wanted it to. [[Just one small thing: It would be perfect to me if the "sample material" tool could also adopt the scale of the sampled material.
                                      I hope I don't bother you with my daydreams... πŸ˜’]] edit: never mind, it works perfectly! πŸ‘

                                        Strange because it works for some other Mac users

                                        Could you type in the Ruby Console

                                        • VK_DOWN
                                        • VK_UP
                                        • VK_LEFT
                                        • VK_RIGHT

                                        Thanks

                                            I have a problem

                                            I have a Mac 10.6.8 and I cannot transform the texture. I tried all 3 ways you mentioned but they did not work.
